Palm Sunday, Mallorca


I've got another Semana Santa post almost ready to go, but the realities of living (in Spain and in general) sometimes get in the way. So, while you wait, I offer you this portrait, which I was thrilled to capture. This little girl was posing for her mother with her palm (almost taller than her!), a traditional craft for Palm Sunday. This picture was taken after the Pollenca Palm Sunday procession, which featured a significant percentage of the townspeople marching through the medieval streets with their elaborately-folded palm fronds and traditional olive branches

Because I'm going to China tomorrow....

...Ireland pictures!

Dublin Castle, right in the heart of Dublin. Pretty cool.
















A typical Dublin street, part cosmopolitan Europe, part old-world Anglo

Inside Trinity gates.


Emily's ridiculous Georgian front hall

Tesco's Busty Cake. No further description required.

Pictures of hijinks at the Stag's Head (site of wonderful Irish music, amorous Frenchmen, and our new friend, Allison)






Okay, labels are becoming a pain, so I'm just going to post pictures unless it gets easier.
